ALL-SKILLS CAMP II IS FULL – REGISTRATIONS ARE NO LONGER BEING ACCEPTED
The Linfield University Softball Program is conducting two instructional All-Skills Fastpitch clinics for girls ages 8-18 on January 19 and January 25, 2025.
All clinic instruction will be provided by the coaches and players of the Linfield University Wildcats, one of the most consistently successful softball programs in the country. Since 2004, the Linfield University softball program has compiled 17 Northwest Conference Championships, 19 trips to the NCAA Playoffs, 16 National Top 15 Finishes, and an overall record of 789-167-2. Â
Â
The 2024 team finished 3
rd at the NCAA Division III World Series after posting a 50-4 record and 43-0 regular season record. As a team, the 'Cats led the entire country in Homeruns, Doubles, and Runs Scored while finishing in the Top 20 in Batting Average, On-Base Percentage, Slugging Percentage, Fielding Percentage, and Opponent Strikeouts.
Each clinic will stress the skills and fundamentals that are necessary to be successful at any level of competition. The skills covered will include hitting, bunting, baserunning, and fundamental defensive play for infield and outfield. There will also be time for pitchers and catchers to learn from the Wildcat coaches and pitching staff.
For girls ages 13-18 both clinics will also feature a post-clinic talk about developing success skills on and off the softball field and a question and answer session where clinic attendees can ask Linfield coaches and players questions about college and the softball recruiting process.
